Ok, so I took another goofy internet quiz. Here’s what I came up with:

You scored as Cultural Creative. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational.

WTF is a “cultural creative”? Me, I guess. This really makes me sound like I’m one of a few recent spiritual pioneers that dares move away from religion while still being deeply spiritual, though it’s my guess that the number of people doing that are large and growing larger. At any rate, according to the “Belief-o-matic”:http://www.beliefnet.com/story/76/story_7665_1.html my beliefs align 100% with “Mahayana Buddhism”:http://www.beliefnet.com/story/80/story_8045_1.html. Well, I wouldn’t paint myself into a corner saying that I align 100% with any particular tradition, my beliefs draw heavily from that tradition.

Maybe I’m just finding a culturally creative way to live a Buddhist lifestyle. Or, maybe I just didn’t learn anything at all.

Congrats!
You know a lot about America, without actually possessing the personal
stereotypical American characteristics. Perhaps you are an American who
simply doesn’t act as lazy and power hungry as most of the others. Or
perhaps you googled a few questions to get some answers..or maybe you
just paid attention in class?

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

Well, after a delightful trip to UNC’s ever-confusing ER Wed. night, I got a diagnosis: pneumonia. What a way to spend a short workweek, laid up in bed writing half-coherent blog posts while forcing myself to breathe deeply despite how hard it is and forcing fluids, yeah, I was going somewhere with this.

So, in the midst of the 103 fever, chills, and general inability to get around by myself, the Apostropher “tagged”:http://www.apostropher.com/blog/archives/002914.html me for the “7 × 7” meme. I’ll humor him, even though his blog software think’s I’m a bloody spammer worthy of ebola.
